immo: incorrectly written īmo perh. sup. form from in, with ending mo; cf.: summus, primus; hence,
I on the contrary, no indeed, by no means, or yes indeed, by all means (more commonly contradicting or essentially qualifying what precedes; but never, like minime, as an independent negative, being regularly accompanied by a clause defining the meaning; v. Krebs, Antibarb. p. 551).
